Kentucky (Perfect Music Today) 4\/16\/20\/-Stoll Vaughan,\u00a0Desires Shape<\/em><\/strong>. It sure sounds like the shape of singer-songwriter Stoll Vaughan\u2019s latest desire is to go as far inside himself as possible, see what he finds there and then write songs that speak to those deepest discoveries. This is an album of soulful purity, one that lets Vaughan not get distracted by anything. It\u2019s all just Vaughan, his 1946 Martin 000-18 acoustic guitar and piano. The level of directness on songs like \u201cWeather in Kentucky\u201d\u00a0 and \u201cSo Righteous\u201d are near-chilling. It sounds like the man has confronted things inside which cause him to take stock in how far he\u2019s come and how far he still has to go. The Kentucky musician has had a road case full of experiences, writing and touring with a wealth of well-known artists, but this time out Vaughan strips it down to just himself. The best news is that it feels like he\u2019s entered a brand new level, and opened himself to the world of possibilities which comes with finding out you already have everything you need. Set him free.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Stoll Vaughan\u2019s album\u00a0Desires Shape<\/em>\u00a0will be released through Commonwealth Artist on April 17.\u00a0 The much-lauded singer-songwriter\u2019s latest album will be available on vinyl, CD and digital formats and includes the lead single \u201cWeather In Kentucky,\u201d an ode to the artist\u2019s home state. In support of\u00a0Desires Shape,\u00a0<\/em>Vaughan will embark on a tour of the South as main support for frequent collaborators The Allman Betts Band.<\/p>\n

Stoll Vaughan\u2019s background is a storied one with lots of strange turns. In the late \u201890s he was recruited to play guitar by punk-turned-rock band Chamberlain while working at John Mellencamp guitarist Mike Wanchic\u2019s recording studio. By the mid \u201800s, Vaughan had released two solo albums,\u00a0Hold On Thru Sleep\u00a0<\/em>and\u00a0Dreams<\/em>\u00a0and<\/em>\u00a0Love Like A Mule<\/em>, touring with the likes of Mellencamp, John Fogerty, Marty Stuart, Don Williams, James McMurtry, and most improbably as a concert opener act on a Journey\/Def Leppard national tour. Vaughan then detoured into TV\/film, with his songs featured in\u00a0True Blood<\/em>,\u00a0Friday Night Lights, Shameless\u00a0<\/em>and\u00a0The Office<\/em>. He also composed\u00a0music\u00a0for David Lynch\u2019s Webby Award-winning documentary series\u00a0Interview Project<\/em>.\u00a0In 2018, his solo career resumed with the release\u00a0The Conversation<\/em>, his third album.<\/p>\n

Americana Highways\u2019<\/em>\u00a0Bill Bentley cited Vaughan for writing \u201cthe kind of songs that feel like they will be around a long time, moving listeners to use them as something to hold on to and hopefully make sense of what can sometimes be the senseless.\u201d\u00a0Writing for\u00a0The Final on Vinyl<\/em>, Keith Hannaleck suggested, \u201cThink of the poetic Dylan, the passion of Cash, and the tasteful six-string arrangements of a Mark Knopfler and you have\u00a0Stoll Vaughan.\u201d Matt Wallock of\u00a0American Songwriter<\/em>\u00a0noted Vaughan\u2019s \u201cDylanesque sense of imagining something just beyond one\u2019s grasp.”<\/p>\n

In sharp contrast to\u00a0The Conversation<\/em>, which was recorded in both Indiana by Wanchic and in Tennessee by My Morning Jacket guitarist Carl Broemel,\u00a0Desires Shape<\/em>\u00a0was tracked entirely in the singer\/guitarist\u2019s current home of Los Angeles, with a minimalist approach. The end result is as pure and stripped down as possible, consisting entirely of originals sung and played on a 1946 Martin 000-18\u00a0acoustic guitar by Vaughan, who co-produced the album with Effie Dozier.<\/p>\n

\u201cA whirlwind of activity ensued after the release of\u00a0The Conversation<\/em>\u00a0album 18 months ago,\u201d says Vaughan. \u201cThere were tour dates throughout the country, radio visits, festival performances and lengthy songwriting sessions with collaborators\u00a0Devon Allman\u00a0and Duane Betts for their Allman Betts Band.\u00a0I was inspired by the way things were moving and blessed to find the time to write and record these songs for\u00a0Desires Shape<\/em>. I wanted to approach this record with a simplicity that would force its intimacy. The title is something of a reflection of that desire to exist and be proud of your raw form.\u201d<\/p>\n

Vaughan\u2019s relationship with Devon Allman and Duane Betts (the sons of Allman Brothers Band mainstays Gregg Allman and Dickey Betts) has been an ongoing creative endeavor over the past few years. He co-produced and co-wrote the four original songs on Betts’\u00a0Sketches of American Music<\/em>\u00a0EP and six of the originals on the Allman Betts Band\u2019s\u00a0Down To the River<\/em>, the group’s debut album. He also wrote or co-wrote ten songs on their follow up full-length\u00a0Bless Your Heart<\/em>, due out this June.<\/p>\n

Duane Betts offered high praise for his songwriting collaborator, \u201cStoll Vaughan is the real deal, authentic, American songwriter. \u00a0It is always an honor to work with him and to call him my dear friend.\u201d<\/p>\n

Duane\u2019s bandmate,Devon Allman was equally effusive, offering, \u201cStoll Vaughan is the consummate Americana songwriter. \u00a0He\u2019s singlehandedly brought our songwriting partnership to the next level. \u00a0He resum\u00e9 speaks for itself. \u00a0He is an unspoken legend. \u00a0Truly.\u201d<\/p>\n

On the eve on the release of\u00a0Desires Shape<\/em>, Vaughan reflected, \u201cTo be able to write, record and perform is a true blessing and continues to shape my life and for that I am grateful. I hope people enjoy this record and it connects to them as it does to me.\u201d<\/p>\n
